| Abstract For the minimally processed (MP) fruit, the cutting type and temperature are the main factors in order to maintain good quality and appearance. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of cutting type and storage on the metabolic activity, color, firmness, aroma profile and, organic acid and sugar content of MP pears (Pyrus communis L. cv. Packham's Triumph). Whole fruits were washed, peeled and cut in wedges or dice. Then, the pieces were packaged in plastic containers and stored 8 days at 5 or 8 °C. The cutting type and storage temperature had an important effect on the physiological parameters, color, firmness and organic acid and sugar content. However, the aroma volatile content was reduced independently of the cutting type and... |

| Obtaining polysaccharides from grape cell walls is an interesting topic for the wine industry given its implications with regards to wine treatments and potential sensory attributes. In the present work, several conditions (i.e., a chelating agent, pH, titratable acidity, extraction time, number of successive extractions, solid to liquid ratio and alcoholic fermentation) were tested to assess their effects on the yield of soluble polysaccharides obtained from grape skins. Among the four tested solvents (i.e., water, tartaric acid, ammonium oxalate, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), aqueous ammonium oxalate was the most effective for polysaccharide extraction but also produced the highest amount of protein impurities. Increasing the number of successive... |

| High quality fruits are increasingly demanded along with the need to ensure this attribute to consumers. Thus, this study was aimed at characterizing a melting (Elegant Lady) and a non-melting flesh (Carson) peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) varieties by considering both their bioactive compound contribution and their sensory quality in ripe fruit at harvest and after a prolonged period of cold storage. Cultivars were evaluated at harvest (F0) and after 30 d of cold storage (F30), as well as after a maturation period at 20 °C for both F0 and F30 (R0 and R30, respectively). Fruit weight, flesh firmness, soluble solid content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), and background color (Hue) were recorded at each stage. Furthermore, total phenol content was... |
